Sorry in advance- I’m long winded.
We have 2-year-old twins; so finding a place with separate rooms for sleeping on vacation is a must, along with close proximity to a lot of attractions and things to do. This condo was perfect! It is much bigger than it looks in the pictures and is decorated very nicely (we saw quite a few others when we were researching renting and they looked very old-fashioned with wallpaper and everything). This one is extremely clean and everything looks brand new.
We were also pleasantly surprised that this was probably was one of the closest condo's to the clubhouse (where the pool, jacuzzi, game room and playground are). Just down the stairs behind the building and you are there. We brought our laptop so we could check the weather, email, movie show times etc. The WiFi is $5 for a week and "works in the clubhouse only" (however with the condo being so close we were able to get the signal right on the back deck and also in the living room by the window without having to go down to the clubhouse with our computer just to check something really quick.
This owner was very easy to coordinate with and was very quick and attentive with all of our questions. It was a pleasure. There are so many little things that helped us out during our trip that he has done to the place that were a surprise and made everything just so easy to slip right in and feel at home. You can clearly tell he really wants his guests to have a nice relaxing time. For example, he has little typed up notes here and there for you. Like on the DVD player saying, "to watch a movie hit TV/video once on the TV remote." They have a ton of both VHS and DVD movies, something for everyone. There are also pamphlets and restaurant menus in the drawers, which we used quite a bit.
Another thing we were surprised at was just how stocked the kitchen was. We have stayed at places before with a pan, some dishes, cups etc--what you would expect. This one has everything you would ever need...even a food processor/chopper and garlic press.
I would recommend brining a gate if you have little ones for the stairs going up to the loft. If they are smart they can get around the side by ducking, but we put a box there and they never even noticed there was a sneaky way around.
Perfect location, perfect condo, and perfect owner=perfect vacation (and that is hard to say with 2 year old twins HA HA
